Officers went to a home in the 4900 block of North Frankfort Place just before 6 p.m. after a neighbor reported hearing a child crying outside for over 20 minutes. The neighbor said he went to investigate and found a naked 4-year-old child outside in the back yard.

The neighbor knocked on the front door, and when no one answered, took the child home and called police.

Looking through a small window into the back of the house, police could see a naked child locked in a metal dog crate, Officer Leland Ashley with the Tulsa Police Department said.
